i heard 305 but couldn't get him.

Damn... I don't understand, it was working fine. The only thing I can think of that happened is windows had installed some automatic updates since the last time I synced my radio. The Baofeng also got knocked off the coffee table onto my hardwood floor, but it didn't seem to phase it. Sent from...

i am so jealous hobie. grrr. I was hearing lots of european stations today. lots of UK and Ireland.

for some reason my baofeng will no longer sync up with my computer, I keep getting errors when I try to Upload to my radio in Chirp. says it can't find the specified file. I tried reinstalling the appropriate driver but it didn't help. What should I do?

sweet. I didn't know RI 1183 was your call, I was listening for 357. Good to know, I might have heard you and never even knew it.

Thanks nick. I just need to get a hookup kit, that'd what I'm finding to be difficult because I dunno what all I need exactly in terms of fuses, gauges, connectors, etc. My 959 deadkeys at like 4 watts and swings to 5. Low modulation for sure even with power Mic. On ssb it gets to 12. (this is...

May hold off on getting an amp, this is too complicated for a beginner lol. Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk 2

location definitely does make a difference. I park in this small gravel lot that is elevated on a gentle hill that overlooks a pond, and then another pond back behind across the road. I've made contacts everytime i've tried dxing there. the receive is always a lot better. i can see the horizon...

I'll be running a stock galaxy 959 with it. I can adjust the deadkey down to 1 watt with the rf powe knob. Thanks for the suggestion, this amp should pair well with my radio. Also, I'm not sure what the proper connectors are. This is all new to me. Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk 2

I sure like mine. I am pretty sure it's stock... receives great, transmits fine, user friendly interface, good build quality. I talked to a station over 21 miles away barefoot with a wilson 1000 and they couldn't believe I was on a stock radio. I sometimes get complaints that I am off frequency...

So I finally decided on the amp I'm getting and I'm ready to order it. Just had a few questions first... I plan to just stick my KL 203P under the seat. Does anyone know how long the power cord is on this amp? I am hoping it is long enough to run it straight to the battery. What all will I...

Got my numbers called by 361 Patrick in Northern Cal today. Said I was a little off frequency but he could hear me. Pretty cool because I have heard 361 practically every day since I got on ssb, good to finally contact him. Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk 2

we could download Whatsapp for out phones and create a thread for us to talk in. It's kind of like a big chat room that we can all join and talk on the go. Like for me, if we did the net, i won't be around a PC. i'll be in my truck, so it'd be more convenient to use my phone.

a guy told me he talked to a chinese astronaut on the moon... Don't believe everything you hear.

What kind of issues??? I've only heard good things about it. Everyone keeps suggesting it to me for ssb for my galaxy 959 on here, and other things i've read online. I was to the point where i was ready to order one from Amazon.

Lmao. I feel ya 357. That's what I go through. Keep trying youll get one. Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk 2

So the TNTs are pretty much the way to go it seems? Might buy the 250. Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk 2

Yeah jus t turn your rf power down to deadkey at about a watt you'll be good.

hams are usually wealthier. that's what i've observed. 99.9% of the hams I know are white, upper middle class men with a college degree. Most CBers are good ol' boys like me.
